The consultation is your first step in determining whether the choice of Laser Vision Correction is the best vision correction option for you. For some patients there may be LASIK risks and complications or even contraindications to having LASIK that may make other refractive surgery options safer and more effective. This is particularly the case for those patients who are somewhat older than 40 and have entered into the phase of aging eye changes called Presbyopia. For patients who are nearsighted, farsighted or who have astigmatism but also are Presbyopia, it is worth getting the facts on near vision Presbyopia correcting Intraocular lens implants (IOL) such as the AcrySof® ReSTOR® Intraocular Lens Implant (IOL), the ReZoom™ Multifocal Lens Implant, the Crystalens® Accommodating Lens Implant or the Tecnis™ Multifocal Lens Implant. While typically used to correct vision after removal of a Cataract, they can be used to correct near vision and Presbyopia in patients who are poor candidates for LASIK due to the presence of Presbyopia along with their distance vision problem.
